Programs described in its return (3)
  1. $1.2 million spent. BILLING PROGRAM: TAPI CONTINUES TO OPERATE A COST RECOVERY PROGRAM TO SUPPORT PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS. MANY INSURED PATIENTS SEEK SERVICES THROUGH THE COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT IMMUNIZATION CLINICS WHICH LACK THE TOOLS TO BILL FOR THE SERVICES. TAPI STAFF, MEETING ALL PROFESSIONAL, PRIVACY AND SECURITY REQUIREMENTS, CONTRACT WITH THIRD PARTY PAYERS AND BILL FOR SERVICES IN ORDER TO RECOVER FUNDS TO COVER THE COST OF VACCINE DELIVERY. THIS REVENUE STREAM FOR COUNTY IMMUNIZATION CLINICS HAS MAINTAINED PUBLIC NURSING STAFF IN TIMES OF BUDGET CUTS.
  2. $98,053 spent. COALITION BUILDING: IN 1992 TAPI DEVELOPED AND CONTINUES TO MAINTAIN A COMMUNITY COALITION OF IMMUNIZATION STAKEHOLDERS WITH COMMON GOALS AND OBJECTIVES. THOUGH THE MISSION OF TAPI HAS EVOLVED OVER TIME, THE COALITION OF OVER 400 ORGANIZATIONS AND INDIVIDUALS FOCUSES ON MEETING HEALTHY PEOPLE OBJECTIVES AND REDUCING THE SPREAD OF VACCINE PREVENTABLE DISEASES TO CHILDREN, TEENS, ADULTS AND SENIORS IN ARIZONA.
